Murray Kinsella reviews Racing Métro’s emergence as top contenders in the Champions Cup. Head coaching duo Laurent Labit and Laurent Travers clearly deserve a great deal of credit for the work they are doing but in this piece the focus is on Ronan O’Gara, their defensive coach. The numbers speak for themselves, Racing Métro conceded the fewest points of any club across the pool stages with a mere 69. Forget the snide remarks referencing O’Gara’s defensive reputation as a player, he’s making a real difference as a coach, Kinsella shows you how.
